Anyone know where to find recipes for kids?

I’m a teacher working with 1st and 2nd graders who are all attending summer school. Part of the program includes cooking. The catch is, we do not have access to a kitchen. Everything we make has to be made without a stove or oven. I do have a microwave, fridge, and freezer though. Any one know of any good websites to find no-bake/cook recipes?

Hello:

Have you tried www.verybestbaking.com or www.kraftfoods.com? These are two wonderful food websites that are FREE to join and they give you wonderful food activity ideas to do with children. You may want to try the following food websites too as they have alot of non-bake activities that you can do with children:

www.allrecipes.com

www.bettycrocker.com

www.pillsbury.com

I hope that this has been helpful for you and good luck! ;-)

Can your kids cook?

I ask this in the light of statistics saying we cook less now and children dont learn at their mums apron strings anymore.
I learnt by watching my mum from an early age and I cook well. My son has been making salads and experimenting since he was 6. At 11, he can now make a mean macaroni cheese or spag bol (with me in the kitchen too of course)
Harrypotter040..I used to to that at about 13/14..My mum used to have to clear up though and it took her all evening!!
Dec…Your on the right road sweetie, keep going, your doing a terrific job!
cflynn..I agree totally about the domestic science lessons, they were part of my growing up and I learnt a lot!

I am 25 and my children (2.5 yrs boy and 5 yrs girl) help me in the kitchen with putting things in bowls as i cut them and help stirring things. my daughter has recently just made her first lot of scrambled eggs, with supervision obvioulsy. its so dead easy and quick to make.
my mum taught me to cook well and we were always helping her from the age we could sit on the kitchen bench and pick things up. I was cooking a dinner for the family at age 10.
My daughter can make herself a sandwich or toast and pours cereal for herself in the morning. Basics like that. packs her own lunch (with a side check from me before it goes in the school bag!)

I intend on teaching my children, yes my son too, to cook a good meal not necessarily because I want my daughter to be a good little housewife but because healthy eating and good body image start from knowing how to prepare and cook good food. I want them to have a healthy appreciation of cooking for others and enjoying good food.

I do believe a lot of people just can’t be bothered to make a meal and therefore their kids wouldn’t know a pot from a fry pan. Its a shame really. what happened to families sitting down to a meal together in the evenings? Those apron strings can be a good thing!!

I am cooking chili for 80 children and 6 adults. How big a pot do you think I’ll need?

I have a pot of about 40 cm diameter. If this is full, do you reckon it’ll be enough?
My pot is 40cm diameter, 20 cm tall

WOW! That’s a lot of hungry mouths to feed. Sounds like you need more pots. Or is everyone going to eat very little. You’ll need a pot "at least 20 inches" high and with the diameter you provided which would roughly be 16 inches. Good luck. Sounds like you really need more pots though.

Why do women get married and then complain about cooking, cleaning and having kids? Esp when men do half?

and they think if they own a home, have kids and the husband works all day and then he comes home, takes care of the kids and helps out with dishes, gardening and laundry, that it is ridiculous that they have to cook dinner and clean the kitchen.

because they always need something to whine about. we have a saying in the navy. it goes "a bitching sailor is a happy sailor." i think the same could be said about women. but maybe you should just take over one week and do everything and don’t complain about it. or act like she needs to put out because you did so. show her how real men do chores.
